What To Do
 On Campus

Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially when you have been in high touch areas. Avoid touching your face with unwashed hands. If soap and water are not available, use a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol.

Please isolate yourself from others and reach out to the Longest Student Health Center to schedule testing or report a positive test for further instructions. Rest, stay hydrated, and monitor your symptoms.

Practice self-care by exercising, eating healthy, talking to my friends & family. As part of the bulldog family we take care of each other. Know that there are resources on campus to help through this unprecedented time.
